D5         C5                G5 
He can be anything that he wants 
D5         C5                G5 
He can be anything that he wants 
A5            C5 
Gene Hackman, what a guy 
E5                  C5 
He can bring a tear to your eye 
 
Well is there anything he can't do 

Well is there anything he can't do 

Gene Hackman, versatile 

The leading actor by a country mile 
 

G5            C5  B5  C5  B5 
Gene Hackman, 
G5            C5  B5  C5  B5 
Gene Hackman 
 
He knows his lines and he hits his marks 

He knows his lines and he hits his marks 

Gene Hackman, what a pro 

Show the crap actors where to go 
 
Gene Hackman, Gene Hackman 
 

D5                 C5 
Gene musta made a thousand films 
              B5 
He's kissed a thousand girls and 
       A5 
Made a thousand kills

And lets not forget he chilled out superman 
 
He's not a man to be trifled with 
He's not a man to be trifled with 
Gene Hackman don't mess around 
Poppa Joe will clean up this town 
 
Gene Hackman, Gene Hackman 
Come on Gene

Gene Hackman, Gene Hackman 
 
Gene musta made a thousand films 
He's kissed a thousand girls and 
Made a thousand kills 
And lets not forget he chilled out superman 
 
He's won a couple of oscars too 
He's won a couple of oscars too 
Gene Hackman, take a bow 
You deserve it all anyhow 
 
Gene Hackman, Gene Hackman 
Gene Hackman, Gene
